Time-To-Value Solutions Using Monolith
OpenWater Solutions (aka OWS) is focused at delivering effective management
solutions to every customer that relies upon IT in order for their business
to function. One of the key factors preventing many organizations from
implementing a management & monitoring solution is the apparent lack of
immediate value of deploying a solution. Many solutions are so complex they
can take at least 6 months to prove the value and ROI of a monitoring and
management solution. OWS addresses this need with the highly capable and
feature rich Time-To-Value reference monitoring solution.
OWS has developed a powerful solution reference architecture centered on Monolith and
Nimsoft that is sure to keep the current market leaders of monitoring awake at nights.
This solution provides end-to-end management capabilities and features that are on
par with the million dollar solutions that are being marketing from the Big Four.
Working with our engineers and partners we have created a standard solution set
for a complete infrastructure monitoring solution that can be deployed in weeks, not months.

of end-to-end infrastructure monitoring & management, but deployed at in weeks ensuring
